The Housing Market Playground

Apr. 24, 2009
Categorized in: Market and Trends
Tagged with: housing blogs, popularity

It seems that the new vicious playground is housing blogs where plenty of people are finding their voices, and none to kind.  Their popularity allow those from various perspectives to bash homes for sale, namely those of upper price brackets.  Why one might ask?  Perhaps the frustration that many would be buyers have towards markets in cities where housing is still expensive, even with foreclosures, short sales and otherwise, desperate sellers.  I see both buyers, sellers, agents and the population as a whole are in need of a reality check instead of throwing stones.  Taste is still subjective and motives can cause cloudy vision.  More importantly, we all need to keep a positive mind and mouth.
